    If you like it then you should’ve put a clamp on it! Secure your wine glass to the surface you are working on to ensure it does not slip away and that your engraving is as accurate as possible. Think Smart Be Safe: Before engraving, ensure your wine glass is clean and dry. Wear eye goggles and a dust mask to protect yourself from any tiny glass shards that may get near your face.

    Now you are ready to begin engraving your wine glasses! For your first time, take it slow and avoid applying too much pressure. Let the tool do the work for you! Simply glide the Stylo+ across the glass much like you would when writing with a pen! Start by engraving the outline of the design. From there, fill in your outline with extra shading to make your design really come to life. Helpful Tip: Always look straight on when engraving glass. Looking at an angle causes your lines to have a greater chance of becoming skewed.
